How is meiosis related to natural selection

Meiosis creates genetic variability in a population, this means that more and more organisms have different traits. Some of these traits make an organism better adapted to survive in its environment. Those with these traits are more likely to survive (natural selection).

What point in this body of water is most likely to have no plants growing
blondinia [14]

Answer:

Point D

Explanation:

Point D is the point that is most likely to not have any plants growing in it. The reason why this point of the body of water will not have any plants is because of the lack of light. This part of the body of water is dark, with no light penetrating to it. The plants need light to survive, as it is a vital element in the process of photosynthesis. If there isn't any light, the plants can not perform photosynthesis, thus they can not produce their own food, which in turn means that they will not exist in such a place.

What is the difference between osmosis and diffusion?
BARSIC [14]

Answer:

The correct answer is osmosis is the movement of water across the membrane;diffusion is the movement of molecules from a higher to lower concentration with or without the presence of membrane.

Explanation:

Diffusion and osmosis are the two most important process of passive transport.Both diffusion and osmosis helps in the movement of water molecules from high water concentration region to region of low water concentration until equilibrium in both sides is  reached.

              Osmosis needs the presence of a semipermeable membrane to occur.

1. The effect of initial population sizes on the growth of populations of an organism was
ella [17]

When graphing data, we must consider the variables, label axes, define units of measure. In this case, variables are initial population size / final population size, showing an directly proportional relationship.

-------------------------------------

We need to construct a graph illustrating the data in the table.

We can make a <u>dispersion graph</u>. To do it, we need to define variables.

Since we want to know how <em>different initial population sizes affect population growth, </em>

  • the independent variable is the initial population size
  • the dependent variable is the final population size (after 24 hours)

The final population size depends on the initial population size. This is, <em>the number of individuals at the beginning will </em><em>influence</em><em> the final number of individuals</em>.

  • Initial population sizes ⇒X horizontal ax ⇒Unit: Number of individuals
  • Final population sizes ⇒ Y vertical ax ⇒ Unit: Number of individuals

By making a dispersion graph, we can represent the effect of the varying initial population sizes on the final population sizes. We can compare these effects and observe how populations grow as the N₀ increases.

We can also choose a <u>bar graph</u>. In this way, we can compare initial and final population sizes.

This graph will show populations and two bars per population.

  • Blue bar ⇒N₀⇒ Initial population size
  • Red bar ⇒N₁ ⇒ Final population size
  • Different populations ⇒ 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 ⇒ Represented in the X horizontal ax
  • The number of individuals ⇒ from 1 to 324 ⇒ Represented in the Y vertical ax.

By making a bar graph, we can represent initial and final population sizes and compare them. <em>The population that begins with 1 individual, after 24 hours has 4 individuals. The population that begins with 3 individuals, ends with 9 individuals. And so on</em>.

No matter which graph you choose, you will observe a directly proportional relationship between both variables. The bigger is the initial population size, the bigger it ends after 24 hs.
